A shot of premonition

I do not know why, George Clooney on the scene of the car, gave me the first impression is: car bomb may have too many movies are like a similar shot, and then the next step is the launch vehicle, bomb ~
but - Then, nothing happened...
I was laughing at myself for a while about my strange idea, but I didn't expect... I

looked back at the continuous series of shots, it was really a car bomb routine, psychological suggestion It's still quite obvious...

I think the arrangement at the end of the film is very interesting. What Clooney said when he ran out to blackmail him actually represented his true thoughts to a certain extent. In fact, he could have been bought, but Kai Lun still doesn't worry about arranging someone to kill him. If it hadn't happened, he wouldn't be involved in Arthur's case again. As a result, instead of extortion, the police feel like lawyers and lawyers feel like police to their gatekeepers. Identity, he has long been disgusted, and he was bought for 80,000 yuan, the guilt of Arthur just saved his life to a certain extent, in this case, this result is indeed what he wants more.

Said To be honest, the plot of this film is quite clear, but the flashback technique and the large amount of information. If the subtitles are not good, it is no wonder that some people can't understand and fall asleep...

But I still feel that something is missing, aside from the flashbacks, the plot is actually average, As for picking faults, I think it's a bit awkward for Clooney to get out of the car and run up the hillside to watch the horse escape, and he can't come up with a convincing reason. (He was ashamed of Arthur for being bought off, so Get off the car and go for a walk, although this explanation is also in the past, but still can't explain why he "at that time", got off at "that place" to see the horse)
If there is a little other reason and explanation for that hillside .

    The shot is good and tasteful, the lens is second. It would be nice to show more of Clayton's personal emotions. Although there was a crash at the beginning, a father's birthday, and a conversation with his son, it didn't feel like enough.

    It's all good, except for a little bit of trickery.

Michael Clayton quotes

  • Arthur Edens: I just need to make my thoughts a little bit more precise. That's, that's my goal.

    Michael Clayton: As good as this feels, you know where it goes.

    Arthur Edens: No. No, no, you're wrong. What makes this feel good is that I don't know where it goes.

  • Arthur Edens: I look up and Marty's standing in my office with a bottle of champagne - he tells me we just hit thirty thousand billable hours on U-North and he wants to celebrate. An hour later, I'm in a whorehouse in Chelsea and two Lithuanian redheads are taking turns sucking on my cock. I'm laying there, I'm trying not to come, I'm trying to make it last, right? So I start doing the math - thirty thousand hours, what is that? Twenty-four times thirty - seven hundred twenty hours in a month, eight thousand seven hundred and sixty hours per year...

    Michael Clayton: Arthur...

    Arthur Edens: Wait! Because it's YEARS! It's lives! And the numbers are making me dizzy, and now I'm not just trying not to come, I'm trying not to THINK! But I can't stop. Is that me? Am I just some freak organism that's been put here to eat and sleep and spend my days defending this one horrific chain of carcinogenic molecules? Is this my place?

    Michael Clayton: You promised me, Arthur.

    Arthur Edens: Is that it, Michael? Is that my grail? Two Lithuanian mouths on my cock? Is that the correct choice to the multiple choice of me?
